This course is designed to assist students in preparing for comprehensive assessments that will measure their ability to integrate science, math, English, and other disciplines in a meaningful way. The development of critical thinking and reasoning skills will be emphasized by studying and analyzing cross-disciplinary problems such as the application of principles of physics and chemistry in the human body. This course will be helpful in preparation for national tests such as the MCAT, DAT, OAT, and GRE. Students will be expected to have completed the course requirements for their respective test, since the anticipated sequence is to take this course in the spring and then to take the test within a month or two of completion of this course.
